21 Things We're Wearing With Sneakers Right Now
Sponsor Content Created With John Elliott
If the brand John Elliott rings a bell, I'm placing bets that it's because you've "accidentally borrowed" a pair of its cozy sweats from a boyfriend or brother over the years. That is, unless you're already fully devoted to its women's collection like I am. The line features ultra-luxe, seasonless classics in super soft fabrics like jersey and french terry. I find them to be perfect for the following three activities where style and comfort are equally important: traveling during the holidays (when you're 98% likely to run into someone you know), working from your couch with a latte break in your near future, and any weekend errand that happens in the daylight.
It's also worth noting that these are all outfits that arguably require sneakers, so it's quite convenient that John Elliott is also one of the few retailers carrying Nike's new limited supply Air Max Dia sneaker. I currently won't shut up about these shoes to anyone who will listen because they fall perfectly between the lines of "dad" sneakers and low-top fashion sneakers. See them, admire them, and shop them below.
Wear these kicks with all the comfy neutral sweatpants, T-shirts, and hoodies (and then proceed to give the men in your life back their clothes while you're at it) you could ever want. I'll leave the accessories game up to you, but I personally love a belt bag and a few delicate rings with loungewear or athleisure looks.
